habitat loss human conflict and high prevalence of disease in captivity An epidemic of feline infectious peritonitis and concern for spread of infectious disease resulted in decreased movement of cheetahs between U S zoological facilities for managed captive breeding Identifying the true feline coronavirus FCoV infection status of cheetahs is challenging because of inconsistent correlation between seropositivity and fecal viral shedding Because the pattern of fecal shedding of FCoV is unknown in cheetahs this study aimed to assess the frequency of detectable fecal viral shedding in a 30 day period and to determine the most efficient fecal sampling strategy to identify cheetahs shedding FCoV Fecal samples were collected from 16 cheetahs housed at seven zoological facilities for 30 to 46 consecutive days the samples were evaluated for the presence of FCoV by reverse transcription nested polymerase chain reaction RT nPCR Forty four percent 7 16 of cheetahs had detectable FCoV in feces and the proportion of positive samples for individual animals ranged from 13 to 93 Cheetahs shedvirus persistently intermittently or rarelyover 30 46 days Fecal RT nPCR resultswere used to calculate the probabilityof correctly identifying a cheetah known to shed virus given multiple hypothetical fecal collection schedules The most efficient hypothetical fecal sample collection schedule was evaluation of five individual consecutive fecal samples resulting in a 90 probability of identifying a known shedder Demographic and management risk factors were not significantly associated P C20 0 05 with fecal viral shedding Because some cheetahs shed virus intermittently to rarely fecal sampling schedules meant to identify all known shedders would be impractical with current tests and eradication of virus from the population unreasonable Managing the captive population as endemically infected with FCoV may be a more feasible approach Key words Acinonyx jubatus cheetah feces feline coronavirus feline infectious peritonitis virus reverse transcription nested polymerase chain reaction shedding INTRODUCTION Cheetahs Acinonyx jubatus are globally endan gered and the African subspecies is listed as vulnerable by the International Union for Con servation of Nature and as threatened by the Convention on the International Trade in Endan gered Species Appendix I 4 Estimates of the number of cheetahs remaining in the wild range from 10 000 to 12 000 in Africa with the majority in Namibia The wild population is threatened because of habitat loss poaching and conflicts with humans 23 24 To combat decline in numbers and enhance genetic diversity reproduction of the captive cheetah population in the United States is intensively managed by the American Zoo and Aquarium Association AZA Cheetah Species Survival Plan SSP Management practices in clude cohousing and movement of animals be tween zoological facilities for breeding practices that also provide opportunity for disease trans mission Despite concerted efforts the captive cheetah population is not self sustaining 22 In the AZA Cheetah SSP population deaths outnumber births because of poor fertility and a high prevalence of diseases such as chronic gastritis associated with Helicobacter sp amyloidosis glomerulosclerosis and veno occlusive dis ease 21 27 41 Cheetahs are also susceptible to infec tion

diarrhea 2 6 8 27 Feline infectious peri tonitis virus FIPV a mutated and deadly variant of feline enteric coronavirus FECV was the cause of an epidemic in a cheetah breeding facility with high morbidity and mortality 6 36 This epidemic combined with widespread serologic evidence of FCoV exposure in the AZA Cheetah SSP population resulted in the restriction of movement of seropositive cheetahs to prevent the spread of infection and increased risk of disease 7 Implementation of this prevention strat egy restricted movement of seropositive cheetahs between facilities thereby preventing pairing of some breeding animals used to maintain genetic diversity FCoV is a member of the family Coronaviridae and is an enveloped single stranded positive sense RNA virus with two serotypes type I and type II and two biotypes FECV and FIPV 33 FECV is transmitted mainly by the fecal oral route infects the mature apical villi of intestinal epithelium and is shed mainly in feces and rarely in saliva 1 34 In domestic cats when fecal shedding of FCoV has been monitored for as long as 7 yr there are variable patterns of shedding that have been described as absent or of low medium or high frequency 1 9 11 Initial infection may be fol lowed by complete viral clearing without shed ding If the virus is not cleared persistent infection and intermittent shedding may result Intermittent shedding of virus also may occur if a cat is reinfected Lastly infection may be followed by continuous shedding suggesting an inability to clear the virus The reasons for the different patterns of fecal shedding after infection with FECV are not completely understood but may be associated with cycles of reinfection or persis tence of virus in colonic enterocytes 13 18 20 Both intermittent and continuous shedders may be asymptomatic In cheetahs it has been suggested that shedding of FCoV in the feces may be intermittent and that shed virus is an important source of infection to other cheetahs 15 In domestic cats FECV is considered a ubiq uitous intestinal virus that is common in multicat households and catteries and it can cause mild transient enteritis and diarrhea yet infection is rarely fatal 18 26 34 35 In cheetahs unlike cats FECV may rarely be associated with chronic ulcerative colitis 15 Munson unpubl data FIPV is a mutated form of FECV and multiple mutations have been identified 3 37 39 Genetic mutations in the 7a7b open reading frame of coronavirus in cheetahs also have been identified 17 After muta tion FIPV acquires the ability to enter and replicate in macrophages and spread systemically resulting in either the effusive wet form the granulomatous dry form or a combination of the two forms of the disease Descriptions of the clinical manifestations and pathologic lesions of FIP are similar between domestic cats and cheetahs including fibrinopurulent pleuritis peri tonitis and vasculitis as well as multifocal necrosis throughout many organs 5 19 36 However cheetahs are proposed to be more susceptible to viral infections such as FCoV due to genetic monomorphism of the major histocompatibility complex associated with a genetic bottleneck Therefore it has been suggested that cheetahs may be more likely to develop fatal FIP when infected with FECV 25 30 31 Historically serologic testing for FCoV was mandated by the AZA Cheetah SSP to identify seropositive cheetahs before movement between zoologic facilities However interpretation of serologic test results is complicated because the detection of serum antibodies may only indicate previous not current infection with the virus and serology does not distinguish between FECV and FIPV In addition as in domestic cats seroposi tivity does not correlate with active infection or fecal shedding of the virus in cheetahs 11 14 16 To use fecal detection of FCoV in cheetah feces as a complementary screening tool to identify actively shedding animals the frequency of fecal shedding of virus needs to be more closely evaluated This study had three objectives 1 to determine the optimal handling and storage procedures for detecting FCoV by reverse transcription nested polymerase chain reaction RT nPCR in fecal samples 2 to assess the frequency of FCoV shedding in cheetahs naturally exposed to FCoV so that a reasonable fecal sampling schedule with a high probability of identifying a cheetah shed ding FCoV can be recommended and 3 to assess potential demographic and management risk factors for association with fecal shedding of virus This information will be used to assess whether fecal RT nPCR for FCoV is a useful test for identifying actively shedding animals and to recommend appropriate testing protocols MATERIALS AND METHODS Study population Twenty five

consecutive fecal samples as detected by RT nPCRwas the outcome variable To determine the probability of correctly identifying a cheetah shedding FCoV by analyzing fewer than 30 samples cheetah 12 hypothetical schedules of fecal sample collection and analysis by RT nPCR were applied to the known daily fecal RT nPCR results of the seven cheetahs with detectable FCoV in their feces The proportion of the seven cheetahs that would be correctly identified as fecal shedders with each collection schedule was calculated and compared with the number of samples needed for that schedule The schedule correctly identifying the highest proportion of shedding cheetahs using the smallest number of samples over the fewest sampling days was considered the most efficient The first day a fecal result was to be assessed was assigned using a random number generator Microsoft Office 2007 Excel Microsoft Redmond Washington 98052 USA Scenarios were run in triplicate and the results averaged Table 3 If the
